Multiphase turbulence as the origin of OH+, H2O+ and H3+ column density scatter in the local ISM

Uri Malamud, Shmuel Bialy, Benjamin Godard +2

Observations of the reactive ions OH+, H2O+ and H3+ in the Galactic interstellar medium reveal large sight-line-to-sight-line scatter in their column densities, commonly interprete…

IPA: Morphology and Kinematics of Molecular Hydrogen Winds in Five Young Protostars across the Mass Spectrum Observed with JWST

Himanshu Tyagi, P. Manoj, Mayank Narang +29

Molecular winds may play a key role in governing angular momentum transport and accretion during the early evolution of protostars. We present the morphology and kinematic properti…

Excitation of warm HD and H and implications for the interstellar deuterium abundance

David A. Neufeld

Rotational emission from HD provides a direct probe of deuterium in warm molecular gas, but the conversion of HD line fluxes to total column densities is sensitive to non-LTE excit…

Investigating the Nested Structure of the Outflow from the Low Luminosity Protostar IRAS 16253-2429 using JWST and ALMA

Mayank Narang, Himanshu Tyagi, Nagayoshi Ohashi +37

Understanding the earliest stage of star and planet formation requires detailed observations to address the connection and interplay between the accretion, outflow and disk evoluti…

IPA. Accretion rate of a low-mass Class 0 protostar, measured via mid-infrared fluorescent OH emission

Dan M. Watson, Mayank Narang, Caeley V. Pittman +41

The earliest stages of star formation are highlighted by complex interactions between accretion, outflow, and radiative processes, which shape the chemical and physical environment…

JWST observations of cosmic-ray-excited H in Barnard 68: spatial variations and constraints on cosmic-ray attenuation

David A. Neufeld, Kedron Silsbee, Alexei V. Ivlev +9

We present James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRSpec observations of the starless dark cloud Barnard 68 that reveal the spatially-resolved signature of cosmic-ray excited molecular…

The first detection of cosmic-ray excited H in interstellar space

Shmuel Bialy, Amit Chemke, David A. Neufeld +12

Stars and planets form within cold, dark molecular clouds. In these dense regions, where starlight cannot penetrate, cosmic rays (CRs) are the dominant source of ionization -- driv…

Revisiting rotationally excited CH at radio wavelengths: A case study towards W51

Arshia M. Jacob, Meera Nandakumar, Nirupam Roy +7

Ever since they were first detected in the interstellar medium, the radio wavelength (3.3 GHz) hyperfine-structure splitting transitions in the rotational ground state of CH have b…

Herschel/PACS Spectroscopic Survey of Protostars in Orion: The Origin of Far-Infrared CO Emission

P. Manoj, D. M. Watson, D. A. Neufeld +14

We present far-IR (57-196 mu) spectra of 21 protostars in the Orion molecular clouds, obtained with the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS) onboard the Herschel Spac…

Herschel/HIFI discovery of interstellar chloronium (HCl)

D. C. Lis, J. C. Pearson, D. A. Neufeld +102

We report the first detection of chloronium, HCl, in the interstellar medium, using the HIFI instrument aboard the \emph{Herschel} Space Observatory. The li…
